Saline solution 7% vs 9%: Anyone switched?

The title of this original post "Saline solution 7% vs 9%: Anyone switched?" has unfortunately created a lot of confusion. The 9% should actually read 0.9% which is normal saline. Is there a way to get that changed?

That is correct. 0.9% is the same as the body naturally has and what you might give to a child or baby. It does very little for me. 3% also did not work well enough for me. 7% does more to avoid exacerbations (for me). But they might make a 9% not to confuse things. I know they make a 12% which would be very strong.
